Hi,

Checked on the playbacks/voicecalls - only the playbacks have this 
problem (I am running Redhat - latest kernel version 2.4.19)

Error Messages (results in stottering audio)

As far as I remember it is only in playbacks - voicecalls ok. 
Videocard in text mode? (does it have a special reason? Need to check 
how to do so)

On this machine I'm using PPP to connect to my ADSL and to

Versions?

Here it's kernel 2.4.20 and ppp-2.4.0-2 (only because of a problem with
pppoatm.so)

.config is:-

CONFIG_PPP=m
CONFIG_PPP_MULTILINK=y
CONFIG_PPP_FILTER=y
CONFIG_PPP_ASYNC=m
CONFIG_PPP_SYNC_TTY=m
CONFIG_PPP_DEFLATE=m
CONFIG_PPP_BSDCOMP=m
# CONFIG_PPPOE is not set
CONFIG_PPPOATM=m
# CONFIG_SLIP is not set

Hope that helps

I'm in Paris right now and can't test this change, but I've been
researching the DAA and there are a few international settings I can
change, so I've changed the driver in CVS so that you can specify
the operational mode.  Try "modprobe wcfxo opermode=1" if you're in most
of Europe and that should switch to CTR21 mode which slightly modifies a
few of the electrical characteristics of the DAA.
As we add modes you'll be able to see them with "modprobe wcfxo
opermode=-1" and then doing a dmesg.
Anyway all you folks that had some trouble like this try it out and let me
know if it makes any difference.
Mark

I guess in his haste to help out the people who were having a problem, 
Mark looked at the wrong data sheet when he wrote this patch.

I have corresponded with him and confirmed that this code requires the 
Global DAA chipset, which is not fitted to the current X100P cards.

So the question is does changing to CTR21 do anything at all with the
existing cards?

If it does nothing then OK, all I want to know is that it doesn't do
anything bad. Much as I, and others, hate France Telecom I'd rather not
nuke their exchange.

I've got CID no problem. I have a problem with it not hanging up, but I
am sure this is software not hardware, as it only happens if voicemail
starts and the caller hangs up to exit, if they use # everything is OK.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk H323 Trunk

2003-08-15 Thread Roger De Salis
During debugging of H323 trunk side (using Jeremy Macnamara's H323
driver in ~/channels/h323) a couple of things come don't quite work
as advertised...
1/ the following line in extensions.conf explicitly sets the
   outgoing caller ID (required in my case for downstream GK
   processing..)
exten => _1NX.,1,SetCallerID,6400047602100
exten => _1NX.,2,Dial,H323/${EXTEN:1}
   what comes out in the h323 datastream and logs is:-

 dialled digits
{
{src digits}
{ "6400047602100)" }
...
note the unbalanced closing backet. We tried changing the
number length, and doing called ID with different functions,
but it looks like a bug.
A fairly detailed squiz around the digium site did not point
where to file a bug to, so I apologise for polluting this list..

Re: [Asterisk-Users] SIP Transfer

Blind transfer works fine with Budgetones.

Ok, just been thinking about this and thought I would ask before

What is the state of SIP transfers?  By this I mean transfers 
initiated via SIP messages, not via DTMF and '#'. 
Last time I tried, on X-Lite, clicking the transfer button dropped the 
call.

Also, are/will both REFER and BYE/also methods be supported?  To me, 
the SIP way of transfering is alot nicer and it seems silly to me to 
have a transfer button on your SIP phone that u can't use.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] '#' doesn't work for me

2003-08-15 Thread James Sizemore
Do you have transfer turn on in zapata.conf?
transfer=yes

Hi,

I cannot use '#' to initiate transfers.
I have tried on different phones (7960, ATA, X-Lite).
When I press '#' during a call, nothing happen.
I have both T and t switches in Dial application.
The transfer function works with Flash key on ATA, but in a very strange
wayThe final destination is hunged up and then automatically called by
the initial caller... This behavior request to put on hook the phone
connected to the ATA in order to accept the transfer. During this period the
phone is busy for the caller, so I must use some tricks in the dialing macro
in order to acomodate this.
Any other suggestions to better solve the transfer function?

Dan

Do not just change the subject line and remove the old text. Start a new
message. It should be a law, there probably is a RFC for it.

Kernel class 201: If your kernel is compiled with module versions (line
noise looking stuff at the end of function names) then you need to have
the proper modversion.h(?) file from when your kernel was compiled. With
out it, nothing will work properly. Second, being 4 revisions behind
head is not a good thing. Upgrade to 2.4.21 and preferably to one you
compile yourself so you have all the right files to make your modules
work right. Don't accept the crap you get from RH.

[Asterisk-Users] DTMF SIP

2003-08-15 Thread George Lin

Hello list,

my case is as follows:

SIP1--asterisk--SIP2. SIP2 is IVR type device. SIP1 and SIP2 both use g729.
When SIP1 calls SIP2, it hears the IVR, and prompt the SIP1 to punch the
keypad on the phone.

As suggested by you, I need to configure the SIP1 with out band dtmf mode ,
what is about the sip.conf, should I specify the SIP1 with demfmode=rfc2238
? do I also need to make same kind configure for the SIP2 as well or I can
configfure SIP2 with inband DTMF in sip.conf ?

Thanks,

[Asterisk-Users] Autodialer / bulk dialer application

2003-08-15 Thread Scott Stingel



Hi all-

I have asterisk running on 2 systems, with four E1 spans each.  Each system 
is connected to a (big) NT DMS-100 switch.

For load testing an IVR system running on one of the asterisk systems, I'd 
like to use the other system to generate a lot of outbound calls under 
program control - on most or all of its channels simultaneously.  

All of the asterisk dialplan and agi programming that I've done relate to 
handling inbound calls only.  Is there a simple way to create a dialplan that 
will cause a line to make an outbound call of a specified duration, and then 
hangup?  I can see how to do this in response to an incoming call on another 
line, but I just want asterisk to make outgoing test calls automatically when 
it starts up, on a bunch of channels over and over, until I kill it.

Has anyone figured out how to do this?

Thanks,
Scott

[Asterisk-Users] Can I runAsterisk remotely from telnet session?

2003-08-15 Thread Steve Lane








I am having problems trying to run
asterisk from a telnet session. I am able to su to root and the command
asterisk does not work. Any ideas why this may be occurring? I thought Asterisk
could be configured remotely as well as run remotely? 

    Thanks in

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk H323 Trunk

2003-08-15 Thread Jeremy McNamara
H.323 doesn't have an explicit caller*id feature, so any callerid 
specific features that have been added are hacks.  Since you are using a 
gatekeeper why don't you use a type=h323 to specify your H.323 id properly?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Can I runAsterisk remotely from telnet session?

2003-08-15 Thread mawali

Please explain, what do you mean by "does not work". It looks like a path 
problem. Instead of using "su" use "su -". 

"su" does not initialize the environment for the user you are "su"ing as, 
but "su -" will. /sbin and /usr/sbin a special path's that are only in 
root's environment.

Hope this help, I will recommend reading a book on UNIX, this is UNIX 101 
stuff.

I was interested in getting the highest quality over a normal phone line
because I want users to be able to record their messages at the highest
quality. They do it not me hence my question about the highest quality
codec.

If for example they used VoIP software on a computer could they get higher
quality than over a normal phone line?

If they did use a normal phone line can I increase the quality of is this a
limitation at the carriers end?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Another thing I'm doing while soak testing an application (pre
/etc/init.d startup script) is to run 'screen' as an unpriviledged user,
then 'su -' to root (or even better, 'sudo su -') followed by starting
the application.

At that point CTRL-A CTRL-D will disconnect the session. Later, a quick
'screen -r' gets you back to that console.

But agreed, a *NIX 101 book would be beneficial.

Using alaw or ulaw over VoIP will give you best quality you are going to get over 
VoIP.. If your PSTN carrier is giving a bad quality line then you should probably 
change carrier... :)

Most prompts will be converted to GSM files anyway so that will be the quality of the 
end result..

I wouldn't worry about it too much, just record some and take a listen, they should be 
fine..

Thanks for the fast reply.

I assume you mean that alaw or ulaw is what the carrier delivers. Because my
customers use the phones they have I do not have control over the carrier
they use, I just meant it to mean all carriers. As in what is the standard
format they deliver in.

I assume that I have no control over how they deliver but at the Asterisk
end I wanted to ensure the highest quality recording.

If I used a direct connection from one computer to asterisk could I increase
the quality by using a different codec, assuming they have broadband access
at their end. I have read that the g711 is the highest quality in the sample
rate but was not sure if this would still work with Asterisk or if I should
use G729 as it seems to be double the bandwidth sampling at between 8 and 12
kps whereas g711 seems to sample at 64kbs but that may flood the connection.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Fats.

Basically G.711 applies the least amout of compression and therefore the least amout 
of quality loss.. similarly G729 applies a very high level of compression so in theory 
would have a high quality loss..

Unfortuantely its not always that simple as not all codecs are created equal.. :)

And as you said the G.711 having the highest quality also has the highest bandwidth 
requirement of 64Kbps (this increases to just over 80Kbps after you add IP overhead) 
so if you can sustain that leavel of throughput then the use of G.711 is irrelevant..

Like I said if you are really concerned then the best way is to test it and then 
listen to the results and see if you are happy with it..

Later..

I've got CID no problem. I have a problem with it not hanging up, but I

Are you using busydetect=yes in zapata.conf? If not, try adding it and

Yes you probably right.
Test and see.

So how do I get and use each codec to test them. I understand some are under
tight copyright control. Do they have testing variations rather than buying
first, find it it does not work, and your stuck with the cost?

If you want to test under Asterisk using a SIP client I would suggest you download 
X-Lite.. This will give you G.711(64Kbps) and GSM(16Kbps) codecs that are both usable 
with Asterisk.. That should give you a basis for your comparison..

If you want to try out G.729 you will have to buy a licence for it from Digium and get 
a SIP phone that supports it..

Have fun..

Doubt you will get another fast reply cos its 2200 so bed will be calling soon.. :)

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk, quicknet and codecs (G729, 7231 Question)

2003-08-15 Thread mawali
Hi
I am using asterisk with a Quicknet lineJack card. I am trying to get a 
proof of concept demo together before real deployment. I have a couple of 
qustions.

1) Can I use the codecs that are on Quicknet card (G.723, etc, etc). I 
tested it and I cannot use any codec in hardware, the only codecs that 
work are G711 and GSM. Since the lineJack provides G.723 in hardware, it 
should be available (other oh323 software can use it)

2) What would it take to get G729 for my demo. I cannot seem to find any 
link for this. I was told that I can use G729 as a paid option. I am 
willing to pay for it, but I do not know who to pay.

Is trying to get 729 and 7231 working on asterisk worth it.

Sorry I waited so long to reply to this.. I had to think about it a bit.

Every reply I've had to this question has involved voicemail somehow.  We
don't use voicemail in the office - we have live operators handling all
incoming calls, 24 hours a day.  No voicemail.  No IVRs.  No auto attendant.

So, another stupid question.. instead of failing over to voicemail, could it
fail to a queue instead?

[Asterisk-Users] Registring soft phones in Asterisk

I tried the following entry and the phone will not register:

I am using the X-Ten Lite soft phone,
but I understood that I didn’t have the correct build. The next thing I
did was download the SJLabs soft phone and tried it,
and got the same thing. If I can get the Asterisk side (sip.conf) configured correctly,
then I think configuring the soft phone will be a cakewalk. Can someone please
help me with this?

 

Thanks

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How can I know if a user is busy or notconnected?

Detecting what type of error or call result was produced by the 
"Dial" application has not yet been implemented, though it is 
desperately (IMHO) needed to allow the dialplan to more reasonably 
direct calls to the correct subsequent context.  If I could code it, 
I would, but I can't, so I patiently wait...

 You can't.

 Yes, that's very annoying.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: The Almighty X-Lite DTMF Problem (patch tested)

2003-08-15 Thread Erik Lagerway
I am glad to hear this DTMF issue has been resolved. With this in mind I
would like to know if there is an index of Asterisk Consultants who
build/sell/support Asterisk IP PBXs in North America.

Xten on occasion receives sales inquiries for IP PBXs and I would like to
refer this business to the local Asterisk consultant.

Cheers,
Erik

Hi!

I decided to apply Chris's patch for the rtp problem, it is working just
fine now.  Thanks Chris!.

I think that Mark should submit it to the CVS.

Yes it can. Essentially instead of doing the failover to voicemail you
will instruct it to goto the queue head end.

"sudo su -" is kind of a stange thing to do. You would probably be
better of doing "sudo bash" as it also will give you a bash prompt with
root login.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk, quicknet and codecs (G729, 7231 Question)

2003-08-15 Thread Bruce Ferrell
Quicknet does not offer G.729.  Make sure that you use the nixj driver 
for the quicknet card.  It's better than the old driver shipped with the 
kernel.  As soon as the new driver is done, we plan to send it to the 
kernel folks so it can replace the old one.

I believe that You can get a 729 codec from digium, but I don't know how 
to make it work.

Hi
I am using asterisk with a Quicknet lineJack card. I am trying to get a 
proof of concept demo together before real deployment. I have a couple of 
qustions.

1) Can I use the codecs that are on Quicknet card (G.723, etc, etc). I 
tested it and I cannot use any codec in hardware, the only codecs that 
work are G711 and GSM. Since the lineJack provides G.723 in hardware, it 
should be available (other oh323 software can use it)

2) What would it take to get G729 for my demo. I cannot seem to find any 
link for this. I was told that I can use G729 as a paid option. I am 
willing to pay for it, but I do not know who to pay.

Is trying to get 729 and 7231 working on asterisk worth it.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How can I know if a user is busy or not connected?

2003-08-15 Thread Dan
You're right.
Just some practical examples which really neeeds this feature.
- using ATA, when the phone is off-hook with dialtone, if someone call that
line it "sounds" busy, even the call waiting is activated.
- when a phone is not registered, iy appears to be busy, which is not the
right interpretation. You must handle in a different way those situations
than in a busy one.

BR,
Dan
